school years growing up in Export, PA after the family moved there in 1960. His
interest in history was sparked by his Grandparents and his father, Robert E.
Lloyd. Between them they collected everything from stamps and coins, to books,
bells, and milk bottles. Brian's main interest was in Archaeology, and he used
every spare moment he could searching the countryside for arrowheads and
fossils. After graduating from Franklin Regional High School in 1971, his
interest in the Revolutionary War era escalated.
Judith Hays Lloyd, was born in Hempfield Township, and was raised in
Carbon, PA. She had a great love for horses, and along with her daughter Lisa,
would use every opportunity that came up to work with and ride them. Judi
moved to New Alexandria, PA in 1974, living at "The Old Stone Inn", a
boarding house and stagecoach stop built in the 1800's. She eventually
purchased a home on the comer of Church Street and School Street.
Brian first moved to New Alexandria in 1975, leaving in 1981, and
returning in 1994 when he and Judi got together. They were married in a simple
ceremony presided over by the town's long time Mayor, Danny Bonrisco, in
1997 and presently reside at the house on Church Street.
The Derry Township area, surrounding New Alexandria, is rich in
history, and Brian and Judi began researching and gathering information as a
team. "THE CLIFF'S OF NEW ALEXANDRIA, PA", is a photographic record
of some of the towns early settlers etched in stone. Brian and Judi do not
consider themselves to be experts, just plain folk interested in recording history
for future generations.visualizza meno
